Elidy in a nutshell
Elidy is nothing less than the world’s first LED matrix fixture capable of
projecting volumetric graphics. Elidy combines high-output, calibrated, warm
white LEDs with custom optics to generate extremely narrow beams which
far exceed the intensity of standard LED screens. When assembled together
Elidy panels form a unique LED wall capable of projecting light and can be
arranged into screens, columns or three-dimensional shapes as required, and
programmed to provide projection effects.
Elidy is modular in form, based around a panel of 25 (5 x 5) very high power
LEDs which are driven by state of the art electronics. Up to 9 Elidy panels can
be run off one power supply unit and assembled to form a screen of up to
225 LEDs (1sqm). These screens can then be rigged side by side to form larger
projection areas.
The latest addition to the Elidy range, the Elidy-Strip, is an LED striplight
composed of either 5 or 15 LEDs. It incorporates all the technology and
functionality of the Elidy panels but with a few revolutionary new developments.
An accelerometer-based-system means Elidy Strip can automatically detect
its own orientation (vertical or horizontal) in a rig and adapt its programming
to match, thus simplifying the programming process. More exciting still, and
unique to Chromlech Elidy Strip, each fixture has new on-board Addressing
Technology which works by touch to set the DMX/pixel address for every
fixture in turn. Technicians and designers are going to love this fast and
ingenious way of setting up their complex systems.
Astonishing dimming capability
Due to its revolutionary LED driver design, Elidy is the only product of its kind
to offer perfectly smooth dimming over the complete dimming range. Elidy’s
patented system implements proprietary wide-range, ultra-fine dimming
that allows extremely smooth dimming over 100,000 imperceptible steps with
absolutely no cut out or stepping when fading up or down. Elidy’s dimming mimics
traditional tungsten sources in a way that makes it perfectly suitable for use in
theatre or studio alike where such high LED dimming quality is necessary.

Elidy integral Data
Data management through DMX, ArtNet and sACN
Elidy implements a very advanced, though intuitive and userfriendly, pixel-mapping interface (the Pixel Engine) that makes
it perfect for creating truly funky animations, from the simplest
to the most complex. Data management is handled using
conventional DMX daisy-chaining, but also, more unusually, via
unique ArtNet daisy-chaining which is both simpler and faster
than conventional star-shape cabling.
Last but not least, Elidy has full sACN networking capabilities,
very useful for the smooth handling of big lighting systems with
complex data networks.
Animation Maker
Elidy integrates Animation Maker, a powerful GIF sequencer which
controls Elidy like a moving light using the minimum number of DMX
channels. Effects such as dimming, shuttering, iris and strobe
effects can be brought into play and combined with two banks of
animated GIF images. The software includes 130 factory-set GIFs
with room for the addition of 40 customised GIFs.

Multi-source control mode
DMX, sACN, Artnet ...
for the selected universes
Animation Maker can be controlled independently from Pixel
Engine effectively creating two separate media engines.
Control of each is via DMX or ArtNet and now sACN, each with its
own network feed. Not only that but each of them can receive
signals from a combination of any two of the three protocols.

PSX9
PX104
The PSX9 is common to all products within the Elidy range. It is controlled via DMX or Ethernet
(Artnet, sACN) and can be daisy-chained with other PSX9.
With its 2-in-1 design, the PSX9 can drive Elidy projectors in Pixel Engine mode (Chromlech’s pixel
mapping mode) but also using the Animation Maker, a powerful tool that enables the user to program
the Elidy projector in the same way as a moving light (iris, strobe, animated GIFs, etc).
The connection between projectors is made via hybrid cables POWER/DATA (3 x XLR-4 pins
connectors).
The PSX9 is able to feed :
1 Elidy-Big or Wall
9 Elidy T or S
15 Elidy-Strip 15
45 Elidy-Strip 5
NB : The PSX9 is included only when ordering the Elidy-Big. For all other products, do not forget to
order it separately
